When a little girl of 3 or 4 climbed up onto my knee

I could tell she had a Christmas wish behind those eyes of blue

So I asked her ?What?s your name and what can Santa do for you??
C G
She said, ?My name is Christmas Carol, I was born on Christmas Day

All I want for Christmas is someone to take me home

Well all that I could say was Santa would do the best he could

And I set her down and told her now remember to be good

Early Christmas morning I got up and dialed the phone

And made a few arrangements at the County Children?s home
